Summon Of The Sword novel Chapter 1848

"What?" Sean was shocked as his expression turned shocked.

The City-State Union was in disarray with many stray mercenary regiments of all sizes. Some mercenary regiments were too small to take on enough tasks to support themselves, so they sometimes partook in bandit raids.

Sean knew about these too, but he had no idea someone would be so bold as to raid Dorodo's town and kidnap the poor residents!

"Why hasn't Quentin contacted me? Doesn't he..."

Before Sean could finish his sentence, the phone on the desk rang suddenly. Needless to say, it must be Quentin on the phone.

Sean answered the phone immediately, and Quentin's voice came through the phone.

"Commander Lennon, I don't know if you've heard, but the poor people who went out to work in the fields through the west city gate were arrested by a gang of..."

"I've heard of it. I'm preparing to deploy soldiers to exterminate all stray mercenary regiments... No, stray bandits in the vicinity of Dorodo. I will also bring back all the poor people who have been captured," Sean said solemnly.

Quentin was relieved to hear Sean's promise but said, "Hurry, Commander Lennon. You must hurry! Those who went out to work in the fields are basically women with no protection. The consequences would be unimaginable."

"I see. I'll hurry."

Sean hung up and ordered Zander to gather the city defense soldiers.

According to the information Zander had gathered, about 20 poor women were captured, and there were 40 to 50 stray bandits armed with weapons and fast horses.

The west city gate was now closed. With 200 city defense soldiers, Sean rode fast horses out of the east city gate and searched the wilderness for traces of the stray bandits.

While chasing, Sean told Zander to take some beans out of a bag and sprinkled them on the ground.

These beans had been soaked in a special medicinal liquid that would exude a pungent smell for a long time.

The city defense army's specially trained hounds could pick up the pungent scent from afar.

"It's getting dark..." Zander said helplessly to Sean after looking up.

"No time to rest. Keep chasing! I don't believe I can't keep up with those damn b*stards!"

Sean rarely used profanity, but he could not help it this time. He was furious at the thought of the inhuman treatment those poor women would have suffered at the hands of the bandits.

As the night darkened, Sean and his men saw several bright fires from afar.
